But the point is that you can see that the device is charging via USB because:
1. The Reader screen changes to show the "USB Connected" display.
2. The charge light, immediately above the power switch, illuminates.
The issue is not that the battery isn't charging - it certainly is. It's simply that the meter isn't correctly displaying the charge. You can tell that the battery is charging because, for one thing, you can actually carry on reading, and for another doing a soft reset puts the meter back to 4 bars, where it should be.
